Interesting fact

The coin features a unique design that showcases Winston Churchill's profile in a slightly different way than most other coins. Instead of a traditional front-facing portrait, the coin features a side-facing profile of Churchill, looking off into the distance with a thoughtful expression. This design was created by the French engraver, Joaquin Jimenez, and it gives the coin a distinctive and memorable look.
